More: He is going to be 11 years young he is very thoughtful and patient ,has never provoked a fight with other dogs except to defend himself and when I feel stressed he looks at me and I slow down, he is loving and always kind. Takes in every thing. There is only one thing that he will drop everything for… the freesbee and the ball and a good swim at the beach. He is a great soul, I just love that he is ours.
